Shooting for Joy {personal}

I've been wanting to get out and shoot for fun, with a theme and props and a perfect style, that really speaks to me. I have been finding several photographers on Facebook, ones I enjoy, and can feel the emotion behind their work. My favorite at the moment is an amazing woman named Deb Schwedhelm.

Her work is simply beautiful and so completely emotional. So, my project for the month....

I found a model here in town, the beautiful TJ Reese. She was willing and totally up for the challenge. We are scouting the best "off the beaten path" location. Shopping around for the perfect add in props and vintage clothes to complete the look and what we will come up with will be incredible...I'm sure of it.

This is the type of photography I love. I want to do more of it. I think it's why I love Boudior so much, the romance, the beauty the energy. I hope in the next few months I can revamp my style just enough, so that these types of photographs are the ones I'm known for. That people will come to me not only for a great portrait, but a piece of art. I think that's when my heart is the happiest, when I am creating a beautiful piece of art for a client.

I'm so anxious to show you the final product. But for now, to send you off in style, a little snap shot of Taylor I did the other day. I think I might use this one for my new business cards.
